As the old saying goes, "birds of a feather flock together," so it's not surprising that most members of a fraternity usually have very similar demographics. Some fraternities are primarily jocks, some fraternities tend to recruit members of a particular race, and some fraternities are made up entirely of rednecks who apparently missed the "Appomattox Courthouse" day of their Civil War history class. The outsider is the guy who falls firmly outside of the default demographic for his frat. His race, social class, subculture, country of origin, sexual orientation, or some other characteristic makes him stand out from his fraternity brothers, often resulting in him being treated a little differently than more typical frat members. For example, he may be subjected to offensive jokes or assumed to be an expert on all aspects of the thing that makes him different.

MajorVaries, but is usually incredibly stereotypical. For example, Asian fratboys will study math or science, while gay frat brothers will major in the arts. Extracurricular ActivitiesAgain, this depends on the particular outsider's character concept, and is often quite stereotypical: The black kid loves horror movies, while the Goth guy spends his time posting bad poetry to his LiveJournal page and playing Vampire: The Masquerade. The NumbersThe outsider's Numbers will also depend on character concept. The kid from the wrong side of the tracks may have a high Nerve low Brain, while the Amish kid would be just the opposite.
